It was followed by an orange fennel salad which was so refreshing in addition to the fried fish fritters. Our main course consisted of grilled prawns, calamari & swordfish. The prawns were so sweet and delicious! Accompanying our meal was a bottle of Le Sabre Dell'Etna white wine. To finish off the meal we had cannolo and tiramisu.

From the starter of caponata, to the pasta filled with octopus and pasta filled with sardines followed with swordfish roses and tuna medallions all accompanied by a DOCG wine recommendation, no detail seemed overlooked.

Specifically, I had tentacoli tubero (octopus) as an antipasto and for a main/secondo : dioniso (swordfish ravioli) with White wine (Eureka - Sicilian Chardonnay). I did not have dessert, but I finished with a lovely espresso and sambuca. Beautiful presentation, lively flavors, and in the background was the most pleasant music (Jazz, Billie Holliday, Bill Withers, and Satchmo). In Italy, I have eaten in Roma, Bologna, Firenze, Assisi, Venezia, Milano, Cefalu, Siracusa-Ortigia, and Capri - but this was the best meal in two months of traveling. Bravo!
